From what I’m hearing the Odin isn’t ultra bright like say the Noble Khan, but it’s definitely an IEM with a fair amount of treble. It doesn’t sound sibilant with mostly anything except some recordings which are especially prone to it and even then it’s a tiny amount at best

Yeah, I wasn't gonna post it, but it does look a bit more exaggerated than I'd imagined based on what people had said—not a problem, IMO, just a little surprising! Very easy to see this as "balanced" but not "flat" in a way that I think would be pleasing to basically everybody.

HBB's measurements aren't as good as crin's, but they usually agree reasonably well (though HBB always has a little bleed at the extreme low-end—most sets also have that bleed-off, but the W9s historically have not).

As of Monday we've officially sold out of all Founder's Editions. Furthermore the demand for both Odin and Hero, even in their standard variant, have far exceeded our expectations and while that's an extraordinary thing that we're extremely grateful for there's a few setbacks that come with it. CIEMs for all new models and the global MKII official release will be pushed back tentatively until the end of the year so that we can focus on the outstanding Odin and Hero orders.

Unless you don't mind waiting I would highly recommend placing your order ASAP through one of our dealers as you may not receive it until late September/early October. The first wave of pre-orders were completely wiped out with the majority of our dealer's 2nd and 3rd orders already being accounted for.


With all of that being said.....

I will be authorizing the release of all Odin and Heros tomorrow (8/21/20) for shipment

I am posting my Hero review as @subguy812 was kind enough to share his platform over at Audio Rabbit Hole.
Be gentle, it's my first time.

HERO REVIEW:

https://audiorabbithole.com/empire-ears-hero-review/

Chris, this is great. Very good read, and very helpful (for me, often times, the most helpful bit of reviews comes with the comparisons - the compares to the Solaris and Nio are super helpful).
Also, kudos for stepping out there and writing this! Great first move.

 

[jwbrent]

Great news on the release of the Odin and Hero! I can’t wait to get my Odin.

 

[mungster]

Mungster...you could always start reviewing. I think everyone thinks everything is free all of the time, not the case.

You're right that's true.
